Former Manchester United and Villarreal forward, Giuseppe Rossi has picked Inter Miami’s Lionel Messi as the greatest footballer of all time over Al-Nassr’s Cristiano Ronaldo.
Speaking recently with British sports streaming platform DAZN, Rossi was asked to pick between Ronaldo and Messi.
He replied: “They both bring different things to the game, that’s why it is so hard to compare them. Ronaldo went from a winger to being the best number nine on the planet, scoring goals is all he cares about.”
He added, “Messi is a goalscorer but he facilitates and I appreciate that as a player who likes to come deep and get the ball. He is a more cerebral player and therefore some people don’t understand that part of the game.
“So that is why I lean more towards watching him play. It is all about preference, all about preference.”
Mess and Ronaldo have won 13 Ballon d’Or among themselves in the past.
